I will turn 65 next February, that means 50 plus years of Floyd.I been blessed to have older bros that injected their (mine now)music into my soul.I cannot go more than a few hours without hearing or thinking in my mind one of their songs.
Do I miss Waters, frankly No I will give him the respect he deserves, but David(aka God)truly is the catalyst of Floyd.Listen to the Pompeii live music and see if you dont agree.
I personally would rather listen to Gilmour than anybody, if that makes him the best so it shall be.

Passion of my life! Long live of David Gilmour ❤️

[Ledprostate]

To write such a song...!! Gilmour is a channel for cosmic magic

[AndorMatus]

After 36 years don't exist better music and performance.

В 1973 году, в 12 лет впервые познакомился с творчеством это Великой группы...И заболел...и буду слушать, пока не призовет Всевышний...

I just listened to this one (and my neighbors and a number of bystanders did as well).
It took me back to the Stadio Flaminio in Rome, July 12th 1988. I distinctly remember one guy two rows ahead who, after smoking a generous quantity of some substance unknown to science, was totally convinced that he was flying. Or swimming. Or both, but at the same time. People all around also looked pretty much confused, and when the first notes of "Sorrow" were heard, we totally lost it.
It had been a very bad day in a very bad year for me, but that night everything was forgotten.

Maybe the best guitar player in rock's history, David Guilmoure. Nobody i mean nobody can play the guitar like David. He's in another level...

[joedog]

Listen to Guy Pratt's bass at 4:20... it compliments Gilmour's guitar perfectly. I cannot and will not go more than a few hours without listening to Pink Floyd. I am completely obsessed with their music. Started with "Dark Side of the Moon" at 15, and I'm now 63, and I listen to them more than ever. Just can't get enough.

I am so glad I was there for this!
As someone who used to average around 12 or 13 concerts a year from the late 70’s through the late 90’s with my buddies, and then moved to Nashville and has worked at 2 of our Country’s most famous venues for the last quarter century, THIS still ranks in my Top 3 Shows / Events in my lifetime.
And honestly this has to be #1
I’ve seen aLOT of shows!

I am 16 years and David Gilmour is my god. my friends doesn't have patience listening to pink Floyd. They ask why the guitar solos has to last for 10 000 years.

[HDPinkFloyd]

its musicians like Guy Pratt and Jon Carin, that Gilmour used in most of his tours since Waters left, don;t get the appreciation that they so deserve, in my opinion they have done a hell of a job. Just to add to this Richard Wright is always a star and always will be, right Mr Waters ?

[michaelschwager]

Pink Floyd ist The Only ones in the world, i am 54 and i hear this musik when I`m 100.

[wileyschmitt]

Best 'post Waters' song, and easily one of my personal favorites, power drums, goose flesh guitar work, and deep lyrics with David's underrated voice.

[HDPinkFloyd]

The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land
Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky
A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers
But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking
He’s haunted by the memory of a lost paradise
In his youth or a dream, he can’t be precise
He’s chained forever to a world that’s departed
It’s not enough, it’s not enough
His blood has frozen and curdled with fright
His knees have trembled and given way in the night
His hand has weakened at the moment of truth
His step has faltered
One world, one soul
Time pass, the river roll
And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication
And silent replies that swirl invitation
Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea
A grim intimation of what is to be
There’s an unceasing wind that blows through this night
And there’s dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight
And silence that speaks so much louder than words
Of promises broken

[marcoleo]

Sorrow è high. Hopes. Le piu belle canzoni dei pink floyd . Number ONE

[ДмитрийКрячко-нк]

Божественная музыка!божественная группа!

[kittyvaughn]

Wow, 30 years ago and this song is still the greatest! Dave and his music is a legend.

BACK IN 1998, THIS WAS a truly majestic work of art, sad and full of feeling and emotion, but in july 16 th, 2016, it became an accurate description of my inner self, after the departure of my mom, who died after 1 full month of struggle for her life, due to a brain hemorrage, with me as the only witness of her last stand at home, after being relesed from hospital when drugs began to have no efect on her decaying organism... I still can remeber the moment i sensed she was gone, even with her heart pumping, checked her eyes´reflex and no change in them, this song began to sound in my ears, and a wave of ´´sorrow´´ fell all over me like a wave, feeling i was running out of breath... it took me a few moments to say goodbye to her and giving thanks to her for all the years she took care of me, for all the years of happiness, laugs, inspiration, all i could do was to took her hand and stay there till she stoped breathing, just like doctors said it was gonna happen when the end would come... and it came... during her burial, i recalled this song when it says : ´´he´s haunted by the memory of a lost paradise /in his youth or a dream, he can´t be precise / he´s chained forever to a world that´s departed / it´s not enough, it´s not enough ´´ ... and i barely avoided breaking down there, it was too much for me, even knowing we left no stone unturned, i could not help but to think the all common thought of ´´is there something more i could do???´´ it still haunts me today.. nowadays, there are days when waking up is too damn hard for me, i managed somehow to do it, but in those moments the words ´´the sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land /plumes of smoke rise and merge into a leaden sky /a man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers / but awakes to a morning with no reason to waking´´ come to me and still describing me so accurately, that it scares me sometimes, i think there are some masterpieces that begin meaning different things in different times in our lives, they are the same, but the environment evolves in such way we get to think they were written for you, a work done by a true artist of tragedy, putting words and music into a human tragedy is some kind of ´´ nirvana´´ or a supreme expression of pain... it is not my mom´s song, but ´´my song´´... miss you so much, mom, can´t write anymore...

The sorrow of the Earth breathes and cries through the voice and the guitar of of David Gilmour. A monster exhibition

[neillalchin]

Who would have thought that such a basic sequence of notes would become one of David's richest in sheer depth and power! It's that golden touch of his. Long live David Gilmour! NA1974🇬🇧.
